Ⅳ. Results
1. Synthesis of one-dimensional nanostructure photoanode
1) TiO2 Nanorod/FTO Substrate
TiO2 nanorods grown hydrothermally on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) and annealed at 500 °C yielded an optimal photocurrent density of ~988 μA cm-2 at 0.1 V vs. Ag/AgCl under simulated illumination conditions. The annealing process minimized the defects in TiO2 and assisted in the formation of close contacts between the FTO and TiO2 nanorods, which allowed for efficient electron transport.
2) Zr:Fe2O3 Nanorod/FTO Substrate
Hematite nanorods on FTO glass were deposited on FTO substrate by using a simple hydrothermal method as previously reported. the photocurrent density of the pristine 1D Zr:α-Fe2O3 is ca. 0.75 mA cm-2 at -0.3 V Ag/AgCl. In the next work, Metal oxides formed a perfectly uniform shell layer on the outside of the 1D Zr:Fe2O3. That is, the 1D Zr:Fe2O3 nanorod will play a role of buliding block structure as well as visible active materials.
2. Synthesis of heterojunction photoanode materials
1) ZnIn2S4 Nanosheet/TiO2 Nanorod
We have successfully prepared the surfactant free fluffy 2D ZIS NS’s onto the 1D TNR’s using conventional two step hydrothermal method by controlling the concentration of ZIS precursor. The empirical measurements were used to confirm that the manifold concentration of ZIS precursor is one of the crucial factor to determining the morphologies, wavelength, and crystal phase. The PEC performance for the entire samples attained manifold enhancement due to the effect of concentration of the ZIS precursor. The optimized heterojunction photoanode reveal higher photocurrent density is 1600 μA/Cm2 at an applied potential of –0.5V vs .Ag/AgCl under the BSI, which is 3 fold higher than the bare 1D TNR’s.
2) CdS Nanoflower/TiO2 Nanorod
With the application of ethylenediamine (EDA) as a solvent, a template, and co-ordination agents, novel photoanode architecture of the cadmium sulfide (CdS) nanoflower (NF)/rutile(R)-TiO2 nanorod(NR) heterojunction is successfully synthesized using a facile two-step hydrothermal process.The optimized CdS(medium concentration; MC)NF/R-TiO2 NR heterojunction exhibited agreatly enhanced visible-light photoelectrochemical (PEC) performance, whereby the highest photocurrent density of 3.23 mA cm-2 at 0.1V versus Ag/AgCl and a photoconversion efficiency(PCE) of 0.46% were achieved under solar light irradiation. The optimal photocurrent density of the CdS (MC) NF/R-TiO2 NR heterojunction, photoanode is 2.54 times(60.68%) higher than that of the pristine R-TiO2 NR. this surface modification reveals the synergistic effect. The optimal CdS(MC)NF/R-TiO2 NR heterojunction showed a PEC hydrogen (H2) generation of 1007.98 μmol after 3hr. The design of the novel heterojunction photoanode that is proposed in the present strategy canshed light on the fabrication of new,cheap photocatalysts for an effective H2generation.
3) CdS/ZnIn2S4/TiO2 Heterojunction
A novel, three-dimensional, ternary CdS/ZnIn2S4/TiO2 heterojunction has been fabricated via a three-step facile hydrothermal method. In this structure, one-dimensional TiO2 nanorods were directly grown on conductive fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) substrates. Next, to form a ternary heterojunction of CdS/ZnIn2S4/TiO2, ZnIn2S4 nanosheets were designed on the TiO2 nanorods and sensitized by CdS nanograins. A systematic photoelectrochemical study shows that the photocurrent density of the ternary heterojunction architecture is as high as 1.4 mA cm-2 at a potential of 0.1 V versus Ag/AgCl (under optimized conditions). A more detailed study shows that the photocurrent density is more than two times higher than that of a single CdS/TiO2 heterojunction (0.615 mA cm-2) and three times higher than that of ZnIn2S4/TiO2 (at 0.1 V vs. Ag/AgCl). This excellent photoelectrochemical performance is ascribed to the way that the band structure of TiO2 nanorods synergistically cascades with ZnIn2S4 and CdS, which allows for the absorption of a wider portion of the solar spectrum and improves the effective separation of the generated electron–hole pairs. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) studies also reveal the significant changes in both the interface resistance and the charge transfer resistance of the CdS/ZnIn2S4/TiO2 heterostructure. This can be attributed to the efficient hierarchical cascading that occurs during the electron–hole transfer from the excited CdS to TiO2 through the enlarged interface of ZnIn2S4 upon visible light illumination.
4) CdS/Zr:Fe2O3 Nanorod
Well-defined CdS nanograin-sensitized one-dimensional (1D) Zr:α-Fe2O3 nanostructured arrays with enhanced photoelectrochemical performance are synthesized directly on F-doped SnO2 (FTO) using the hydrothermal method. Owing predominantly to the appropriate photogenerated electron–hole separation and charge collection in 1D Zr:α-Fe2O3 nanorods, hydrothermally deposited CdS/1D Zr:α-Fe2O3 samples exhibit improved photocurrent density over CdS/Fe2O3 nanosheets prepared by other methods. In our work, compared with 1D Zr:α-Fe2O3, the CdS-sensitized 1D Zr:α-Fe2O3 nanorod arrays show 1.9 times improved photoelectrochemical performance. Unfortunately, CdS nanograin-sensitized 1D Zr:α-Fe2O3 nanorod arrays suffer from instability problem. Nickel hydroxide loading, however, can boost the photoelectrochemical performance of the heterojunction and also act as a protective layer that improves the stability of the Ni(OH)2/CdS/1D Zr:α-Fe2O3 electrode compared to CdS/1D Zr:α-Fe2O3.
3. Development of Cocatalyst/Heterojunction photoanode materials
1) Ni(OH)2/CdS/ZnIn2S4/TiO2 Heterojunction
A simple and effective strategy was used to fundamentally improve the performance of a heterostructured Ni(OH)2/CdS/ZnIn2S4/TiO2 photoanode. TiO2 nanorods grown hydrothermally on fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) and annealed at 500℃ yielded an optimal photocurrent density of ~988 μA cm-2 at 0.1 V vs. Ag/AgCl under simulated illumination conditions. The annealing process minimized the defects in TiO2 and assisted in the formation of close contacts between the FTO and TiO2 nanorods, which allowed for efficient electron transport. The stepwise introduction of ZnIn2S4 and CdS on annealed TiO2 enhanced absorption in the visible range and electron/hole separation in CdS/ZnIn2S4/TiO2. Additionally, the Ni(OH)2 cocatalyst functioned in hole trapping and improved the stability of the photoelectrode through timely consumption of the photogenerated charges, particularly the holes.
4. Synthesis of Gradient Core/Shell Quantum Dot Photocatalyst
1) CdZnS/ZnS Core/Shell Quantum Dot
Among the studied CdS based samples, the CdS/ ZnS 4times demonstrates remarkably enhanced photocurrent compared to the CdS and CdS/CdS/ZnS 3times over the entire potential window. Each J-V graph shows four light curves under light condition taken at four separate scan. It was ssen that after first scan measurement photocurrent decrses and then for the next three cycles it is nearly same. The presence of ZnS leads to the enhancement of transient photocurrent response of CdS from 384 μA cm-2 to 698 μAcm-2 for CdS/ZnS 4 times), almost 2 times higher than that of the pure CdS. Moreover, the transient photocurrents were rapid, steady and reproducible during three switched on–off cycles. When the light is interrupted during chopping condition, the accumulated holes in the surface state gradually vanish, and a spike is observed. The initial decay of the photocurrent indicates that a fraction of h+ which reaches the semiconductor surface, instead of capturing e−from the electrolyte, either accumulates at the surface or recombines with electrons from the conduction band. After recombination of the excessive h+, the generation and transfer of electron−hole pairs reach equilibration ,and a constant current is formed. Upon light illumination, the photocurrent increases sharply and the current intensity returns quickly to the dark current state when the light is turned off. With the addition of ZnS on CdS, the heterostructure photocatalysts have lower recombination of electron–hole pairs than pure CdS, which promotes the more effective migration of charge-carriers and the photocatalytic activity.
